I appreciate the motive behind it, but I don’t think your strategy is effective until we have national ranked-choice voting.
Say you are given the choice of Starbucks drip coffee (black), or Jonestown Kool-aid. You are going to be force-fed one of them no matter what. You have a vote to choose which one you prefer.
In your scenario, you say “milkshake” in the hopes that maybe next time a milkshake will be an option, and in hopes that the rest of the voters are smart enough to avoid cyanide.
I don’t think Trump has as much of a lead as you think in Florida. It’s unlikely, especially if potential Biden voters vote third party, but it’s far from impossible. Making people believe it’s impossible is part of the strategy though. Why participate if you’re going to lose anyway, right? It’s not likely Biden wins, but it’s possible and you could actually effect it, unlike the places where Biden is guaranteed a win.
At least consider watching the polls, and if it gets closer consider changing your decision.

NARRATOR: They’re not.
Cool but the state’s choosing Jonestown Kool aid anyways so what makes asking for Starbucks coffee better than asking for a milkshake
